I am sat here waiting to leave (in about an hour and a bit) to go in for egg collection.

This is my third attempt at IVF/ICSI.

The first got to collection but we only got one fertilization and that did not cleave.

The second got cancelled due to non response to down regulation.

This time I was on a "Short protocol". On Friday we had 2 follies of a good size and 3 mini-follies. It looked like we would be cancelled. By Monday we had 4 or 5 good follies and some smaller ones. So its ok to go ahead today.

I am pretty edgy as the quality was poor the first time (we even got 6 eggs). I have been upping the protein intake this time to try and improve quality.

Anyone have success with division in an attempt after having an attempt that did not cleave???

Thanks

Hi they got 5 eggs and 2 fertilized.

This really is the scary bit now. Its completely out of my hands (body!!!) and I am just praying they divide this time.

Good luck with your attempts!
